Are heat waves electromagnetic waves?
Heat waves are the same as infra-red radiation; however it is the more specific name. Electromagnetic waves range from Radio Waves to Gamma Rays so, technically, the answer is no.
Which travels faster radio waves or microwaves?
-- Microwave ARE radio waves.-- All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, including radio, microwaves,heat, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and allthe others.
An object that is a good radiator of electromagnetic waves is also a good?
An object that is a good radiator of electromagnetic waves is also a good source of energy (heat,light ...)
Where does infrared heat come from?
Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves that are near to visible light do not generate heat and are used in TV remote controls. Infrared waves that are far from the visible end of the light spectrum are thermal and generate heat. The infrared heat from the sun, a lamp or a radiator is a type of far infrared radiation.
Do radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelength than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
How does heat travel in liquids?
Heat travels through liquids with heat radio waves. And the radio waves will eventually warm up the liquid.
What home appliances use electromagnetic waves?
Microwaves. They give off microwaves! Also light bulbs (visible EM), heating coils (infra-red EM), and ovens (infra-red EM). Also radios and TVs receive radio waves, garage-door openers generate and transmit radio waves, blow-driers irradiate the air passing through them with infrared (heat) waves, smart and dumb cellphones all send and receive radio waves, laptops on wireless home wi-fi send and receive radio waves, and their screens generate and radiate visible light waves which make it a lot easier for us to see what they're computing.

How a triode works as basic amplifier?
A triode works as a basic amplifier by the use of radio waves. The radio waves produce a heat that is amplified.
How does a microwave make food hot?
it uses radio waves to heat the dish
What are three things radio waves can do?
Here are a few things that radio waves can do: 1. Communications (TV, Commercial radio, Ham radio etc.) 2. Heat things up, (Microwaves are just extremely short radio waves) 3. They can travel extremely fast (At the speed of light)
Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or xrays?
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio, heat, infra-red, visible light, and ultra-violet.

What humans use radio waves?
Radio waves are used to transmit signals from a radio station, and you can receive the signals with a radio, and hear them as sound such as speech or music. The long wavelength of radio waves makes them a suitable medium for transmitting over a large range. it is also use in agriculture...... it is used to diagnose different diseases
Radio waves visible light from the sun infrared rays from the heat lamps the waves that heat food in a microwaveoven ultraviolet rays and x-rays are all considered types of?
plasmas
